Horticulture in the Peel-Harvey A Guide for Investors and Growers This brochure provides important information to guide investment decisions with new horticulture development in the Peel-Harvey Growth in the Perth Peel-Harvey Region Because of its close proximity to markets, the Peel-Harvey coastal catchment grows over $350 million of produce across 140,000 hectares. Peel-Harvey Region With production expected to increase significantly in the next 20 years, new agricultural systems and food innovation which both meet this increased production and protect the region’s unique environmental character, are paramount. Horticulture and the environment There are a many significant environmental assets within the Peel-Harvey, chiefly the internationally recognised Ramsar-listed wetlands and Estuary. These natural features are protected under International Convention and require protection from threats, particularly excessive nutrient-rich water entering the coastal catchment. Nutrients drive algal blooms which erode water quality, reduce recreational opportunities and ultimately lead to health issues and fish kills. To maintain water quality, special requirements apply to all new developments including horticultural projects.

Potentially suitable for Annual horticulture (moderate risk to water quality) e.g. vegetable farms, turf farms, flowers, seedling nurseries Potentially suitable for Perennial horticulture (moderate risk to water quality) e.g. citrus, orchards, table grapes, other fruit, high yielding olives, retail nurseries Potentially suitable for Viticulture (moderate risk to water quality) e.g. wine grapes, low yield olives Potentially suitable for Closed system horticulture and nurseries (moderate risk to water quality) Not suitable for horticulture (very high risk to water quality) Protecting everyone’s future Government policies are in place to ensure both sustainable horticulture and a healthy environment can co-exist within the Peel-Harvey coastal catchment. State Planning Policy 2.1 Peel-Harvey Coastal Plain Catchment and the Environmental Protection (Peel Inlet-Harvey Estuary) Policy 1992 require all new developments within the catchment comply with nutrient management standards. Additionally, these planning policies support sustainable agriculture: • Peel Region Scheme Strategic Agricultural Resource Policy • Greater Bunbury Region Scheme Strategic Agricultural Resource Policy • State Planning Policy 2.5 Land Use Planning in Rural Areas In places, horticultural use may be restricted, require special conditions or not be permitted due to excessive risk to our waterways. Groundwater resources may be limited or of poor quality in some areas. Nutrient Management Risk The map provides general advice and is a guide only. Growing vegetables directly in poor deep sands leads to excess fertiliser being washed into groundwater and our waterways. This can lead to algal blooms and fish deaths and is contrary to government policy. Well managed closed systems of production pose a much lower risk to our waterways. Growers are strongly encouraged to pursue opportunities to use closed loop growing systems in preference to growing vegetables directly on poor soils. Selecting a site for investment If you are planning a new horticultural venture in the Peel-Harvey, here’s a helpful checklist: • Consult your Local and relevant State Government agencies early in your planning process • Ensure the land’s zoning supports commercial horticulture / intensive agriculture • Match crop and production systems to site soils and land capability • Seek advice from suitably qualified professionals to ensure your proposed project complies with established policy • Ensure sufficient groundwater/water resources are available to the chosen site • Ensure adequate separation between production areas and sensitive land uses • Ensure necessary services and infrastructure can be supplied to the site • Avoid impacts to significant bushland or wetlands Advice > Assistance > Approvals Local and State Government can provide advice and assistance to help plan new horticultural ventures, or direct you to the appropriate agency for assistance. New horticultural developments in the Peel-Harvey Coastal Catchment require planning approval by the relevant Local Government authority. This ensures that developments comply with State Government policy and local planning schemes and will be environmentally acceptable. Proponents are encouraged to consult their Local Government planning departments at the earliest possible opportunity. Pre-lodgement meetings will help clarify information requirements and the approvals process. Other government approvals and licences may also be required, including licences to take groundwater, construct dams or drain, pump water, discharge treated effluent, or clear native vegetation. Your Local Government may be able to provide guidance on some of these requirements.

  • City of Rockingham – August 2019 Submission

    City of Rockingham – August 2019 Submission

    Submission - Select Committee Inquiry into Local Government City of Rockingham – August 2019 The City of Rockingham welcomes the opportunity to make a submission to the State Government’s Select Committee Inquiry into Local Government. The City is aware that the Select Committee will have received submissions from the Western Australian Local Government Association and the Growth Areas Alliance Perth and Peel, and these are both comprehensive. The City wishes to draw the Select Committee’s attention to specific issues that are relevant to Rockingham and its community. Background City of Rockingham is a local government with a rapidly developing residential area, supplemented by industrial and commercial areas, and a naval facility on Garden Island. The City encompasses a total land area of approximately 260 square kilometres, including significant areas of coastline and parkland. As with other outer metropolitan growth local governments, Rockingham has and continues to experience substantial population growth, with the resident population growing 22% between 2011 (109,415) and 2018 (133,389). Rockingham is the 5th largest local government in Western Australia based on population, and the 4th fastest growing by actual annual population growth numbers (2018). Based on current .ID forecast projections, the City of Rockingham’s population is set to grow to 192,805 by 2036. The WAPC South Metropolitan Peel Sub-Regional Planning Framework projects the City’s population to reach 235,000 by 2050. Critical issues – Development and population growth The State Government, through the Western Australian Planning Commission, controls the macro approach to development in the metropolitan area. The drive for higher density development and affordable housing has created a landscape of large homes on small lots, with very little yard space for traditional family recreation.
